| Spectacular landscapes, teeming with a rich array of unique African wildlife and flora, dominate Zimbabwe. Man has added to the wonders of this natural paradise: magnificent Lake Kariba, the largest of many manmade lakes, is an incredible 280-kilometre-Iong inland sea born of the waters of the mighty Zambezi downstream from the unforgettable Victoria Falls. And everywhere there are great wilderness areas - almost 50,000 square kilometres, more than twelve per cent of Zimbabwe's total land area - is preserved as a wildlife estate without equal. With superb rock climbs in its dramatic mountain ranges serving as counterpoint to the joys of trout fishing and golf, blue water lakes, great savannah plains, forested hills, glorious botanical parks, and vibrant modern capitals, Zimbabwe is a land of stunning contrasts and endless delights. More than 150 breathtaking colour photographs by Mohamed Amin and Duncan Willetts testify to Zimbabwe's grandeur and Brian Tetley's accompanying text narrates the colourful story of this fascinating nation. |
